Step by Step to Make Chewy One Bowl Oatmeal Cookies
1: Prep the Oven and Sheet
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
3: Add the Wet Ingredients
Pour in the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract.
Stir everything with a wooden spoon or spatula until smooth and fully combined.
4: Fold in the Oats and Raisins
Mix in the old fashioned oats until evenly distributed.
If using raisins, add them now and gently fold into the dough.
5: Portion the Dough
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Leave a little space between each cookie to allow spreading.
6: Bake Until Edges Are Golden
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, depending on how chewy or crisp you prefer.
The centers will look soft that’s perfect. They’ll set as they cool.
7: Cool and Enjoy
Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
Transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling. Enjoy warm or store for later.
